<p>Hi all, I installed a new K1 android TV box / sat receiver to an old sky dish with a dual LNB and after re-aligning the dish only slightly with the help of a sat finder, the blind scan found all freeview channels. A few days later all is lost again and the best I can get is the Optus test signal or a wrong satellite to the west with all the christian and arabic stations on it.

<p>Hi all, I installed a new K1 android TV box / sat receiver to an old sky dish with a dual LNB and after re-aligning the dish only slightly with the help of a sat finder, the blind scan found all freeview channels. A few days later all is lost again and the best I can get is the Optus test signal or a wrong satellite to the west with all the christian and arabic stations on it. When I use the sat finder I somehow can't get a definite peak in signal strength for the D1 direction like I had before when I installed it all. The only thing that changed between the initial successful set-up and the loss was that the power to the house was off for some time - but the K1 box should have memorized all channels. Could the LNB be on the way out? The sat finder indicates 13V, shouldn't it be 18V for the horizontal polarisation?</p>
<p>Any ideas? Thanks so much.</p>
